Community SupportHi Alaahady ,
Thank you for reaching out to fabric community.
- Keep one centralized semantic model in the DEV workspace, avoid duplication.
- Grant departmental users Read permission on the semantic model without giving them access to the DEV workspace.
- Build permission is not required for users who only consume existing reports.
- Publish reports through departmental Fabric Apps and configure appropriate App audiences.
- Implement RLS/OLS to restrict data access by department.
- Test with departmental user accounts to verify report access and data security.
Thanks!!
AlaahadyThank you for your comprehensive respond. I agreed with most of your points
I have 2 questions here:
- How to Grant departmental users Read permission on the semantic model without giving them access to the DEV workspace.
- Is there another option, I have thousands of users and granting access to more than 120 semantic model is a full-time job and I'm afraid of losing control and impact governance
